The Get Ahead -- Volcano

I don't know about you, but this New York winter is getting might dreary. I'm glad I have the Get Ahead to heat things up. The Portland-based band probably has lots of experience with damp, discouraging weather. That probably explains the bouncy, limitless cheer the quintet brings to their brand of neo-soul.

The Get Ahead should be proud of their debut album. The band is a tight unit. It's easy to hear how much fun they're having in the studio -- one can only imagine how much better they are live. Overall, Volcano is a party album. You might not find the Answer to your Question here, but you will find some good times.

Mission Statement

In times of change, we turn to music. There is no denying that this election brought out the cracks in American society. There is no denying that there are entire segments of the population that do not know or understand each other. The best way to do so is by listening to each other. This blog stands against the racism, homophobia, transphobia, nationalism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, ableism, and normalizing of rape culture that was present in American society but is now normalized by Trump's campaign rhetoric. This blog commits to featuring the voices of LGBT and POC artists, even if and when that means straying outside of Americana. We want you to listen to everyone's voices.
